Money Released By South Korea to Iran for Supposed Humanitarian Purposes

Just like their buddies in North Korea, Iran has plenty of money for humanitarian purposes they just choose to use it to fund a burgeoning nuclear program, ballistic missiles, terrorism groups, etc. The real reason these funds were released was because Iran released five American hostages showing that kidnapping and terrorism do work:

The Iranian funds currently held in South Korea can only be used for humanitarian purposes while the United States will continue to hold Iran accountable for any destabilizing actions, a state department spokesperson said Monday.

Vedant Patel, principal deputy spokesperson for the state department, also emphasized that the money had always been available to Iran for humanitarian use.

“Allowing Iran to use such funds for humanitarian purposes is consistent with long standing U.S. policy to ensure that our sanctions do not prevent humanitarian goods and services from flowing to ordinary people, no matter how objectionable or problematic their government is,” the department spokesperson told a daily press briefing.

All of the oil and steel America sold to Japan before WW2 was used to arm and equip the forces that raaped China and bombed Pearl Harbor.

Of course, Iran is completely different. /sarc

Did South Korea have any say in this, or was this all a very generous and gracious US decision to give South Korean money to Iran?

“Did South Korea have any say in this, or was this all a very generous and gracious US decision to give South Korean money to Iran?”

South Korea had no say. Half the money came from the operating budget of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family. The rest came by reducing the budgets in other areas of government such as orphanages, subsidies to old farmers, white collar criminal investigations, and inspections of imported American rice.

Korea can be proud they have contributed to world peace.
